Switching Gears

July is almost over and it is time for me to switch gears and get ready for the first semester of the new school year.

Since I switched jobs in the middle of last year, I haven't taught this curriculum yet so I have some work to do. Thankfully I was able to get together with one of the other Social Studies teachers yesterday and he took me through the curriculum and lent me his materials to build upon.

I also have some work to do for Language Arts. Right now I'm in the process of building an Elements of Literature powerpoint as a review... and just finished my Eight Parts of Speech power point review.

I do have some quilty projects on the back burner, and maybe if I can get myself uber-orgranized, I can actually take a couple of days each week before school starts and keep sewing. Might be a little difficult since the laptop is sitting on top of the sewing table and Mr. Bernina has been pushed down.
